Retinoscopes

Instruments for RETINOSCOPY that determines the refractive state of the EYE, such as the degree of NEARSIGHTEDNESS; FARSIGHTEDNESS; or ASTIGMATISM. In principle, a retinoscope provides a light source to illuminate the RETINA, and then locates the aerial image of the retina in space to obtain an index of the refractive quality of the patient's lens system.

3.	Refractive Errors (Refractive Error) 06/01/1992 - "Refractive error was measured using a retinoscope and trial lenses. " 10/01/2021 - "Refractive errors and over refraction of patients were diagnosed using Topcon autorefractometer (RM-A2000) and confirmed by Heine beta 2000 retinoscope. " 03/01/2013 - "Axial length (AL) and cornea power (K) of 295 children (590 eyes) aged 8. 43 years old (4-14 years old) were obtained through IOL-Master, refractive error was measured by retinoscope after cycloplegia. " 06/01/2006 - "A scale was created adjacent to the sleeve of the retinoscope which allowed an estimate of refractive error based on the position of the top of the sleeve. " 07/01/2003 - "Having developed a computer-generated virtual focimeter, we are now in the process of developing a computer-generated virtual streak retinoscope to teach the principles of retinoscopy and the effect of residual refractive error and mirror movement on the pupil reflex. "
4.	Vision Disorders (Hemeralopia) 11/11/2020 - "We used the modified Refractive Error Study in Children to determine prevalence of refractive error and visual impairment, including the following investigations: distance visual acuity, assessed by Snellen Tumbling E-chart; refraction, assessed by retinoscope binocular vision assessment; and examination of anterior and posterior segments. "
5.	Strabismus (Squint) 01/01/2015 - "After determining their refractive error (with a retinoscope), near point of convergence (by millimeter ruler), near heterophoria (by alternate prism cover test), and positive fusional vergence at near (by prism bar), subjects were divided into two groups to receive PPT (at least three times a day for 5 minutes each time) or office-based therapy (two times each week for 60 minutes each visit) without home reinforcement. " 09/01/2010 - "We applied the MBT using the streak retinoscope to identify anisometropia and strabismus by noting an inter-ocular difference in movement and glow, from children who failed 6/9 Snellen on community vision screening, followed by comprehensive eye examination.
